Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Rocky Linux VPS Ho Tšoara VPS

What is Rocky Linux?

+

Rocky Linux is a community-driven, enterprise-grade operating system designed as a 1:1 bug-for-bug compatible replacement for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). It was created by the original founder of CentOS after Red Hat shifted CentOS to CentOS Stream.

Is Rocky Linux production-ready?

+

Yes! Rocky Linux is production-ready and used by thousands of organizations worldwide. It provides the same stability and long-term support as RHEL and CentOS, with 10 years of support per major version.

How is Rocky Linux different from CentOS?

+

Rocky Linux continues the original CentOS model: a downstream, stable rebuild of RHEL. CentOS Stream became upstream (less stable). Rocky Linux offers predictable, production-ready releases with long-term support.

Can I migrate from CentOS to Rocky Linux?

+

Yes! Rocky Linux provides official migration scripts for CentOS 7 and CentOS 8. The process is straightforward and preserves your existing configurations and applications. Always backup before migrating.

What is the Rocky Linux support lifecycle?

+

Rocky Linux 8 is supported until May 31, 2029. Rocky Linux 9 is supported until May 31, 2032. This matches RHEL support timelines, giving you 10 years of security updates and bug fixes.

Does Rocky Linux cost money?

+

No! Rocky Linux is completely free and open-source. Unlike RHEL which requires subscriptions, Rocky Linux provides enterprise-grade features at no cost. Commercial support is available from third-party vendors if needed.

What package manager does Rocky Linux use?

+

Rocky Linux uses DNF (and YUM for backward compatibility). Install packages with "dnf install package-name". It has access to the same repositories and packages as RHEL.

Should I choose Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux?

+

Both are excellent RHEL clones. Rocky Linux is led by the CentOS founder. AlmaLinux is backed by CloudLinux. Both are production-ready with identical functionality. Choose based on community preference or commercial support availability.
